Pop star Lance Bass married his fiance in a star-studded ceremony in Los Angeles on Saturday night (20Dec14). The former 'N Sync singer wed his longtime partner Michael Turchin at the Park Plaza Hotel in front of 300 guests, while actress Jamie-Lynn Sigler officiated the ceremony with Once Upon A Time star JoAnna Garcia Swisher.
Other guests included his former 'N Sync bandmates JC Chasez, Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick - Justin Timberlake was unable to attend as he is away on tour.
The couple's first dance was held to a rendition of Elvis Presley's Can't Help Falling in Love by Chasez, while R&B star Kelly Price also performed. The grooms were given away by their mothers, and members of the wedding party walked the couple's dogs down the aisle.

"I'm really excited that JC is going to sing during our first dance. It is, of course, very meaningful to me. He has the best voice I've ever heard in my entire life. And it looks like he might be doing it as a duet with Kristin Chenoweth." Lance Bass reveals his former 'N SYNC bandmate JC Chasez will be performing at his wedding in Los Angeles on Saturday (20Dec14). Bass will exchange vows with boyfriend Michael Turchin during a ceremony officiated by the couple's friends, Joanna Garcia Swisher and Jamie-Lynn Sigler.

Actresses Joanna Garcia Swisher and Jamie-Lynn Sigler have become ordained ministers as they are set to officiate at their friend Lance Bass' wedding this weekend (20-21Dec14). The former Reba star and her Sopranos alum pal will be pronouncing the 'NSYNC singer and longtime boyfriend Michael Turchin husband and husband during a ceremony on Saturday (20Dec14). Sigler took to Instagram.com on Monday (15Dec14) to show off her newly acquired ordination certificate from the Universal Life Church. She added the caption, "Hey @michaelturchinart @lancebass... I'm ready! @jogarciaswisher lets do thisssss" Bass previously revealed on his Sirius XM radio show that Sigler and Swisher are the perfect pair to take on officiating duties. He said, "We've asked our two best girlfriends to officiate this wedding because I cannot think of two better people to give us away. These two know us the best. Jamie has been part of my life for so many years, she knows where all the bodies are buried." Sigler added, "I have thought a lot about it and I've had a few weddings since you asked me, so I've been taking notes. When you guys asked us I thought you were going to ask us to be in the wedding... but then when you said it I lost all bodily functions." Bass and Turchin's nuptials will be filmed for a TV special called Lance Loves Michael: The Lance Bass Wedding, which will air in America on 5 February (15).

Justin Timberlake was left shivering after accepting an ice bucket challenge to raise funds to fight Lou Gehrig's disease.
Over the past two weeks, a fundraising phenomenon has taken social media by storm, with participants given the task of either pouring a large bucket of freezing water over themselves and donating $10 (£5.96) to the ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) Association, or donating $100 (£59.60) instead of accepting the challenge.
Those who agree to take on the task must post a video of themselves on social media completing the challenge, then nominate a few more people to get wet, and they only have 24 hours to accept. On Monday (11Aug14), the challenge reached the SexyBack hitmaker, and Timberlake posted a clip of himself, along with his touring band The Tennessee Kids, pouring the freezing cold water over themselves, leaving them stunned and soaked.
Timberlake, who nominated his pal comedian Jimmy Fallon and his talk show band The Roots to take on the challenge, also posted on his Facebook.com page that they not only donated the $10, but added the $100 plus "a bunch more. It's such a good cause."
Timberlake's former 'N Sync bandmate Lance Bass has also taken the ice bucket challenge, as well as Martha Stewart, Ansel Elgort, Eliza Dushku, Elizabeth Banks, Jennifer Morrison, and Joanna Garcia Swisher.
A representative for the ALS Association told Mashable.com that the organisation has raised $160,000 (£95,322) between 29 July and 11 August (14), which is 10 times higher than the same time period in 2013.

Field Of Dreams star Kevin Costner became an honorary member of the Cleveland Indians baseball team on Sunday (23Jun13) after he was invited to step up to the plate for batting practice. The Hollywood actor has been filming new movie Draft Day, in which he portrays the general manager of the Cleveland Browns, in Ohio but he swapped American football for baseball this weekend as he joined the Indians' first baseman Nick Swisher - husband of actress Joanna Garcia - on the pitch at Progressive Field.
Announcing Costner's arrival, Swisher joked, "We have a new player, bro (sic). We signed him to a one-day contract. We've got Kevin Costner on our side."
The actor showed off his batting skills and made a few catches in the outfield before mingling with players and coaches, and the star admitted he was worried he had lost his touch before stepping onto the field.
He tells the Associated Press, "I was actually glad I made contact (to meet with the Indians) because I haven't swung in a couple (of) years. I thought my chances of swinging through the ball were just as good as fouling it off."
Costner's visit to the ballpark took place before the Indians faced off against the Minnesota Twins, but the Man of Steel star's presence failed to bring the home team the good luck they needed - they lost the game 5-3.

New mum Joanna Garcia has introduced her baby daughter to the world in a sweet photo posted online. The cute picture of little Emerson Jay features the tot in a garden setting, wrapped up in a purple blanket as she sleeps in a basket, surrounded by colourful flowers. The baby girl, who was born in May (13), is the actress' first child with her baseball star husband Nick Swisher.

"We are overjoyed, blessed and so full of love that our daughter Emme has finally arrived. She is healthy, beautiful and vibrant. It's the best feeling in the world." New mum Joanna Garcia and her husband, baseball star Nick Swisher, confirm to People.com the arrival of little Emerson Jay, who was born on Tuesday (21May13) in Cleveland, Ohio.

Actress Joanna Garcia is a first-time mum. The American Pie 2 and Not Another Teen Movie star and her husband, baseball ace Nick Swisher, welcomed a baby girl on Tuesday (22May13).
The Cleveland Indians first baseman skipped the team's game on Tuesday night to be with his wife and new daughter, according to MLB.com.
Further details about the newborn were unavailable as WENN went to press, but Swisher recently gushed he couldn't wait to meet the tot, telling Yahoo!, "I never in a million years thought I'd have a little girl, but over the last six months, the pink and purple dresses that I've bought, I'm telling you... My wife, Jo, she says, 'You're going to spoil that little girl so much.'
"I can't wait, man. I talk to her every night. Jo and I, we're so excited to meet her and to bring her in the world and give her a whole lot of love."
The couple wed in 2010.

Nothing was hotter in 2012 than '90s nostalgia. From the Clueless cast getting back together to the revival of Boy Meets World, this was the year of reminiscing. But while the trend is veering dangerously into overkill, there is nothing — and I mean absolutely nothing — bad or wrong about Vanity Fair's photo shoot of the entire cast of the beloved, short-run cult darling Freaks and Geeks.
It's not just the obvious players like James Franco (Daniel), Jason Segel (Nick), Seth Rogen (Ken), Linda Cardellini (Lindsay, a.k.a. Lady L), Busy Philipps (Kim), and Martin Starr (Bill), but everybody was there. Millie! Mr. Weir! Cindy Sanders! Guidance counselor Mr. Rosso! The original McKinley High gang (that's right, Glee, deal with it) is all here. Okay, you can argue that it's not technically everybody (Bill's Seven Minutes in Heaven partner Vicki, played by Joanna Garcia Swisher and relentless bully Alan, played by Chauncey Leopardi, are among some of the MIA) but it's still a joyous blast from the past to see the cast and creative team — including Judd Apatow and Paul Feig — from this brilliant comedy/drama back together.
Sure, they're a little bit older (except for John Francis Daley and Samm Levine, who appear not to have aged a single day since Freaks and Geeks unjustly went off the air after one perfect season back in 2000) but the chemistry is still completely there. As a fan of the series, it's hard not to get a little bit choked up looking at the sweet VF photos, but then again, Freaks and Geeks is like seeing an old reliable friend who conjures up some seriously wonderful memories. You can see the entire slideshow here, but check out the amazing class photo below and see if you can spot all the familiar faces:

"Such an exciting &amp; blessed time 4 @NickSwisher &amp; I. feeling beyond grateful 4 all that is happening in our lives! Wishing same 4 all of u!" Pregnant Joanna Garcia is enjoying her journey to motherhood. The actress and her husband, New York Yankees baseball ace Nick Swisher, will welcome their first child together next spring (13).

Summary

Engaging actress JoAnna García's talent for both straight drama and broad comedy allowed her transition successfully from juvenile roles to adult characters in primetime series like "Reba" (The CW, 2001- 07) and "Better With You" (ABC, 2010-11). She began her career in her teenaged years, commuting from her native Florida to Montreal to film the Nickelodeon/YTV series "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" (1990-1996). García soon graduated to guest shots on network television, which led to her long-running stint as Reba McEntire's pregnant daughter on the country star's well-loved sitcom. However, her attempts to land a follow-up series with the same degree of longevity as "Reba" were largely met with failure, as "Welcome to the Captain" (CBS, 2008), "Privileged" (CW, 2008-09), "Better With You" and "Animal Practice" (NBC, 2012) were all short-lived. García kept busy as a supporting player on television and features like "The Internship" (2013) while juggling philanthropic interests and motherhood. Throughout it all, García retained her footing in the entertainment industry as a bright and versatile talent.
